My room had a sickly sweet scent to it, I walked to my closet got out my perfume and started spraying my room.
"Ohmmmm!", I said angrily and I heard the door open.
"What happened?", Nurse Evelyn said.
"I told you, I didn't like this air freshner nau". I replied her.
"Your Mom said I should use it".
I kept spraying the room with my perfume and I heard Nurse Evelyn opening the windows up.
I sat on my bed and took out my phone. I could see the light of the screen, it was blurred out but it was there. It was there!!! I rub my eyes and lay down staring at the blurred out light bulb in my ceiling, there was a light in my ceiling.I can't believe it.
My surgery was still two weeks away but Mom had gone nuts with the restrictions, my eyedrops had doubled and Daa kept buying carrot milk like that will make a blind see again.
"I bought Suya, ask the chef to make it hot", Daa told Ms.
THANK YOU FOR ALMOST A 100 VIEWS CAN'T BE MORE GRATEFUL
Let's visit our main guy Rhema. RHEMA I kept zooming into the video on my phone pleading the image to change from Malik to someone else, I didn't want to believe he had killed her or had a hand in killing her. We were like siblings, he was always around us and now all of a sudden he killed her? My insides were doing flips. I want to be anywhere but here right now, Chidimma and Sarima are talking on and on about the video giving their theories and I just seated here in denial. "Are you okay?", Sarima asked and that's when I realise them staring at me. "Why?".
IBIMMofe and I were sitting in one corner of the prep hall in the hostel that afternoon. She was busy copying the notes she had missed when she was away in surgery and well, I just didn't copy notes."Floxy, she said something so weird. I think she's abroko, ask Tochi. Guy she was weird...really weird".Mofe dug into her bag of plantain chips and chewed noisily while listening to me talk."I always suspected her but what's her connection with the whole thing sef. See at this point I just want to graduate from Ogan and never step my feet back here", she said."I swear ba... the school is tiring". I said and ran my hand over my face."So what did she say exactly?"."She said that Mina and Malik deserved the cloak and she somehow expected me to know why they deserved it".Our phones buzzed.Mofe looked into her screen, it was a screenshot of a message between two people. Abroko has struck again.
LOLAIt all started the day I overheard Ms Angeline and Senior Daniel in her office, he was telling how they needed to stop whatever it was they were doing. I should have walked away but I stood at the door and pressed my ears to the door."I can't do this anymore Angie,if we get caught, you'll lose your job and I'll get expelled"."We won't get caught"."We could, the sex was good, the dates perfect but everything needs to end"."But Daniel, we're in love"."I'm seventeen,Angie. This doesn't go anywhere, we're just going to end this now".She let out a noise like scream. "I won't let you do this boy, I will make sure you pay""Your back again with your threats,did you smoke a blunt today,Angie." My heart was beating in my chest. I looked around and nobody was on the hallway. We were all meant to be in the assembly hall with Ms.Yakubu for a briefing on the inter-house sports. I wanted to go to the b
IBIMThe hallway was quiet, teachers were in their meetings, the SS3s were having a seminar with some people from outside school. Tochi was striding easily behind me humming some tune, I recognised to be Burna Boy's but not sure what song exactly."What song is that?", I asked."You don't know this song?!", he sounded terrified.I laughed. "I recognise it but I can't remember the name"."Bank on it"."You can bank on it, you put a hundred grand pon it"., I said and he cooed."You know the vibes then", he hopped like a child waiting for
IBIMOgan looked a little bit different than I remember it to have been all those years ago, the grass hedges looked a bit higher, there were more flowers outside and the uniform was better looking. One thing about seeing is the world looked new to me, everything caught my eye. The house fly on the kitchen counter, the stain in the car seat, the white spec on my uniform skirt even the dust that danced in the sunlight. I just taught I hadn't seen enough of the world yet. When I walked into the hallway, Mofe was standing at the door with a blue bag slumped on her shoulder, she had texted me the precise location, she would be and I wouldn't have recognised her if she hadn't described her location. She looked so new to me like she wasn't my best friend I had known for all these years."Ibims", she said and ran in for a hug."Mofe?""Yes", she said still holding me in her embrace."So many people are lookin
IBIM.The door creaked and Mom's perfume filled the ward, I moved in my bed and she tsked."Toku, they said you should not move oh, this is a major surgery"."I feel like I need to itch my eyes". I said with a chuckle."Madam, don't talk like that.""Mommy, I'm just joking", I said amidst chuckles. "Don't freak out. Where is Daa?""He went to get you food"."Please nothing with carrot milk, the surgery is done. I will throw up if I so much as see carrots".Mom laughed and I felt the space on the bed dip. She held my hand and was p
